Going to Dominican Republic on Sunday...

[crumpinator]

I am going on vacation for the week in Dominican Republic on Sunday and plan on bringing my metal detector as there is a large beach at our resort! My question is how should I go about bringing my detectors into the country? Should I check it in my luggage and hope nobody looks inside and takes it? Let me know!

Its going to depend on the airline. If they will let you pack it in your carryon, I''d do that so you always have it in hand. Most airlines will make you put it in your check luggage, so you have no option.

I have an equinox 800, so would it be a problem since it is a lithium battery and cannot be removed from the housing?

that would be the problem. like I said, find out the airline policy for installed single lithium batteries. I've found confusing answers. Some say it must go in carryon, some say it must go in checked.

I brought my excal with battery off the stem in my carry on to Peru since I didn't want it lost. They never asked anything about it although I wanted to show my baby off lol. No different than a laptop really which people carry on all the time. I guess the not removable battery is slightly different but I've never had to take the battery out of my laptop so it is also not removable to me. .
